Default * Cai 04 SS S/C Monte Carlo vs Lightning*

I gave him some time but he didnt manually downshift, so it took forever for him to drop a gear while i started pulling. He came by me at 110 when i hit the stock limiter. This run was from 60 to 110. We did get a clean run with him in 2nd and he got me by 90. I was surprised with my daily driver. Time for a tune and pulley! I know the L had a cai and exhaust not sure about a pulley.

Nice run. Gotta love two Eaton powered vehicles going at it.

Boost is a GREAT thing!!!! Ya think an Eaton is good, try a turbo! We got 1 of each. That little 2.0L turbo spanks my non-stock L-67 EVERY TIME! ya, she's got me on weight, but power too. Almost 50 hp more than me. ZZP has tried SEVERAL times to get me to ADD a turbo to my L67.

The only time I've ever tried that with another L67 car was early this year up in WI or MN on the highway. I came up on a GP GXP doing 70. I passed him, then he passed me and slowed back to 70. Then traffic opened up, and I went around him on the right and said "bye-bye!" He musta been stock.
